Given the power series $$\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}}=1+\frac{1}{2} x^{2}+\frac{1 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4} x^{4}+\frac{1 \cdot 3 \cdot 5}{2 \cdot 4 \cdot 6} x^{6}+\cdots$$ for \(-1< x <1,\) find the power series for \(f(x)=\sin ^{-1} x\) centered at \(0 .\)
Identify the functions represented by the following power series. $$\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{x^{2 k}}{k}$$
Evaluating an infinite series Let \(f(x)=\left(e^{x}-1\right) / x,\) for \(x \neq 0\) and \(f(0)=1 .\) Use the Taylor series for \(f\) about 0 and evaluate \(f(1)\) to find the value of \(\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(k+1) !}\)
Use Taylor series to evaluate the following limits. Express the result in terms of the parameter(s). $$\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\sin a x}{\sin b x}$$
Bessel functions arise in the study of wave propagation in circular geometries (for example, waves on a circular drum head). They are conveniently defined as power series. One of an infinite family of Bessel functions is $$J_{0}(x)=\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^{k}}{2^{2 k}(k !)^{2}} x^{2 k}.$$ a. Write out the first four terms of \(J_{0}\) b. Find the radius and interval of convergence of the power series for \(J_{0}\) c. Differentiate \(J_{0}\) twice and show (by keeping terms through \(x^{6}\) ) that \(J_{0}\) satisfies the equation \(x^{2} y^{\prime \prime}(x)+x y^{\prime}(x)+x^{2} y(x)=0\)
